The combination of the scale ι〇ι_ι〇2 is preferably temporary, and when the lens is formed, it can be separated and the lens removed. At least a portion of the surface of the scale member 101-102 is in contact with the lens forming mixture such that when the lens forming mixture HQ reacts or hardens, the surface 103-104 allows the lens contacting portion to form the desired shape and shape. In some embodiments, at least one other casting 101-102 can also be. Other embodiments include a lens having a free-form surface that is formed by voxel by voxel polymerization in a single pound of voxel.
